SMS Hay was a steam gunboat of the Jäger class built for the Prussian Navy in the late 1850s and early 1860s. The ship was ordered as part of a program to strengthen Prussia's coastal defense forces, then oriented against neighboring Denmark. She was armed with a battery of three guns. The ship saw very little activity during her career. She was activated during the Second Schleswig War against Denmark in 1864, and she saw brief action during the Battle of Jasmund on 17 March. Hay also participated in the Franco-Prussian War in 1870, but she did not engage any French forces during the conflict. The ship saw little further use and was struck from the naval register in 1880; she was then converted into a coal storage barge, but her ultimate fate is unknown.
